IgG purified |
Dilution Range: |
IHC, WB (confirmed by recombinant protein). A dilution of 1:300 to 1:2000 is recommended. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user. Not tested in other applications. |
Storage Instruction: |
Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at-20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, Glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles. |

1000-1050 aa |
Specificity: |
Specific for CACNA1A. |
Immunogen: |
A synthetic peptide from aa region 1000-1050 of human CACNA1A conjugated to blue carrier protein was used as the antigen. The antigen shares 87% identity with mouse and rat sequence. |
Function | Voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, gene expression, cell motility, cell division and cell death. The isoform alpha-1A gives rise to P and/or Q-type calcium currents. P/Q-type calcium channels belong to the 'high-voltage activated' (HVA) group and are specifically blocked by the spider omega-agatoxin-IVA (AC P54282). They are however insensitive to dihydropyridines (DHP). |
